After burning the candle at both ends, I finally find a day to rest, basically sleeping through the whole thing. -------------------- Well, I arrived at the bus station with plenty of time spare, only to discover that the bus arrived an hour after I was expecting it to. Fortunately for me, the bus I had inadvertently chosen was a full-cama. This meant there were big comfy seats that leant a long way back which I could sleep on. So from midnight last night, when I boarded the bus, until 8am today, I slept soundly and hardly woke throughout the entire journey. This should have been sufficient sleep if it were not for my current sleep-deprived condition. You see, over the last week, and especially the night before, my sleeping hours grew progressively shorter and my condition progressively worse, as I tried to complete all of my commitments to people before I left. I succeeded, but my body was a wreck. So today was a day of rest. Literally. When I reached the hostel in Puerto Iguazu, only 5mins walk from the bus station, I put down my bags and climbed into the bed. Another 6hrs later, I climb out again, and wander slowly around the quiet township which has all but completely shut up for the siesta hours. After finding a small shop for lunch, at around 3pm in the afternoon, I then return to my hostel, and my bed, and sleep a further 3hrs. I guess I was really tired, huh. I feel better now, but expect an early night will also help out a little more. Then it is off to Paraguay tomorrow. BTW some recent news that I heard leads me to believe that Australians and New Zealanders no longer need a visa to enter Brazil. It would be nice to know that my journeys through Brazil are now no longer subvertive. I will ask at the border tomorrow.
